Sentimental but not overly smaltzy
April 16, 2003
Syrupy and over-rated.

Ultra glossy soaper that's frankly irresistible.

The politics are relegated to the background, and what is left is a commercially astute weepie.

The story of Jewish left-wing ugly duckling and the WASP prince with whom she falls in love encapsulates its time and emotions with knowing precision.

It's easy to forgive the movie a lot because of Streisand. She's fantastic.
May 26, 2008
An engrossing, if occasionally ludicrous, hit tearjerker with Pollack, Streisand, and Redford doing a good job of bringing Arthur Laurents' script to the screen.
May 26, 2008
A distended, talky, redundant and moody melodrama.
January 26, 2010
Old-fashioned sudser.
July 29, 2009
In Pollack's schmaltzy romantic melodrama, real politics is in the background (of course), but the movie is enjoyable as a star vehicle for its handsome stars, Redford and Streisand in their only film together, not to mention Hamlisch's melodic tone.

With the script glossing whole areas of confrontation (from the communist '30s to the McCarthy witch-hunts), it often passes into the haze of a nostalgic fashion parade.

A for effort; C for execution.
